this post is about the baby frozen in time
We may have spent upwards of three hours tonight discussing Brooke Greenberg, a baby who never developed beyond 11 months despite being sixteen years of age. While I was mostly just put off by this discussion, I am fascinated by the fact that her condition is called Syndrome X, as well as by the more obvious fact that no one in the world shares her condition.
Then we wondered if she was going to outlive us all. My guess is ‘no.’
